Report written by Caroline Helder
The promised sunshine never appeared but that didn't dim our enthusiasm in the community garden. It's positively blooming at the moment, with brightly coloured flowers, and all sorts of herbs, veg and fruit in abundance, and a group of young children were enjoying a nature-inspired workshop. We were mostly weeding and tidying the space under Sarah's trusty supervision. It was great to meet Rob, who was previously a Goodgymer in Bath, and welcome him to Merton.
As Merton's local environmental charity, we aim to inspire, mobilise and enable our community to take action on climate change and protect our environment for future generations. Sustainability and wellbeing go hand in hand, so our projects address both environmental and social goals, such as addressing the cost of living crisis and strengthening community connections. We believe that a happier, healthier, more connected community is one that will have the greatest impact.
